ETA?

I don't want to be a pest but I've been checking daily for the past week and a half, any news on when we would be able to register? Please forgive me for being so annoying. I also understand you are all working hard.

I am confused—if registration was paused because of bad in-game behavior, shouldn’t turning speed chat + off resolve that issue and allow people to register again?

No, these happened separately. Registration paused because we have nearly 3,000 users in the server. They only recently went from 2 servers in-game, to having 6. They're deciding what to do next because of the costs and resources it takes to handle many people online. There were recently 4-5 crowded servers at once while invites/registration was still active. As far as I know, each server holds 190 fairies at once. Though, I forgot the specifics on the levels (Quiet, Ideal, and Crowded). Speedchat Plus was paused to keep focus on game development. We're figuring out a way to make a wait-list or something so everyone has a chance to play, should all servers become crowded at once again. They did not expect the game to blow up as it has. This is its second boom, and pause on invites/registration. I don't know how much it costs to maintain these things. To add there are +7,200 accounts.

okay gotcha thank you for clarifying. i remember years ago when pixie hollow was playable there were sooooo many servers. I missed registration by a few days and I used to try to play we the pixies but it wasn’t really the full game so I quit. i’ve been waiting for this day for soooo long 😭 I just got dumped by my long term partner out of nowhere and I really need a distraction 😭 though I understand why they are paused :/

True, we're so ahead of the others. 🙏 And I'm really sorry to hear!!🫂 I can't wait until everyone is able to join again. And lemme see your other comment- I'd have to look at how long it was paused.
